I fixed my post yesterday about an hour after posting to include the front page story..I AM trying to help,honest!!

><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><

PS3 and PS4 versions of Watchdogs will include an hour of extra content,as this is from Ubisoft...Assassins Creed 3 also had an extra hour or so of extra content on the PS3(I wonder if AC:Black Flag will do the same)

This game was the only reason I saw to buy a PS4 at launch. Didnt know it was coming out on every platform. Now I see no reason not to wait for a ps4.

Well, with this coming out November 19th, and I'm assuming the new consoles will hit around then as well if they want to get in on the Black Friday sales madness, you probably won't have to wait for a PS4 much, if at all.

Ravi Sinha: What graphical options can players expect from the PC version?

Francis Boivin (Team Lead Programmer): Disrupt was developed to have state of the art visuals on all its quality levels. We needed to have AO, massive dynamic light support, HDR, GI, depth of field, etc. to fully realize the ambition of art direction. We improved on techniques that we worked on in the past and surveyed what was available for the highest level of quality we wanted to achieve. We didn’t just integrate the technique of the moment, but spent quite some time turning stuff around and mixing algorithms so they fit our requirements.

sounds cool, I may or may not be sliding a new GTX 780 into my rig by the time this comes out, it all depends on how much I want to expand my gaming budget this fall.

I'm in for something here, not the $130 but I am willing to bet I am the only one buying it on the wii u. I have a feeling the gamepad is going to be killer for this title.

I have to say, I'm really excited about this. This has the potential to be a truly killer game.

Now do I want it on the PC or PS4...

Judging from that video, it looks like the PS4 version might integrate pretty well with the friends list. Among other things, the player sees the other player's profile pic when "invading" him. It's probably going to mean a better online experience, and with WAY less risk of running into cheaters.

details on the mobile app from Ubi. thankfully you have to accept the challenge if you have MP turned on, someone with the app can't just start doing random things to other peoples games while they're waiting in line at the deli.

Get used to this type of minimum specs, people. Now that the 360 and PS3 aren't going to be the baseline for games any more, PC specs will be expected to be comparable to the new consoles. This means multiple cores and lots of RAM. I believe Watch Dogs is the first game I've seen that requires an x64-version of Windows, but this is also going to become increasingly common very quickly. There will be a massive jump in minimum specs for PC games now, but it will slow down again in a year or two.

They are actually higher. Now they're more in line with what I had expected. Among other things, the new 6 GB minimum amount of RAM is exactly what I expect to be the case for most AAA games made for the next-gen consoles going forward. This is roughly the same amount of RAM they can use on these consoles, after all. It used to be that 2 GB left you with enormous reserves compared to what the 360 and PS3 used, but now that RAM is no longer the console bottleneck, things are about to change. For the better.

however, all the articles posting this new info link to the uPlay store page for the game, which does not have them listed. Not sure if they've been taken back down again, and the directions given at the end of the article always end me up on the US store page for the game.

luckily if I have to upgrade all I have to do is the CPU (i7 3770 is the same socket as my mobo), but I may forgo my planned used Ps3 purchase (sorry Ni No Kuni, you will have to wait) and better use that money towards a i7-3930K, which would require a new mobo. while I'm at it I might as well toss in 16 gig of RAM.

and maybe another SSD drive....

perhaps a blu ray drive as well....

and I could always use another GTX 780....

hey, I could go with water cooling as well......
